My biggest complaint is that the ending of season 1 really just came across as disrespectful to viewers, particularly in light of how long it was between seasons.

Maybe this coloured my opinion of it, but I watched them back-to-back. I didn’t experience that feeling of being disrespected by the wait. I just heard it was good, and watched what was available.

For the first season I felt like it was a really interesting concept, and I was excited to see how it developed. The second season just seemed like it’d lost its way to me, and they were drawing it out.

Meh. The first season was good, but I feel like it pretty much could’ve ended there. The second one felt kind of drawn out and dull to me.

I don’t really care about the rewards, but I did roll my eyes at the email.

I just got back from a year in Austria, where I was paying €9,90 a month (with the first 3 months free!) for unlimited calling and 60GB of data with Europe-wide roaming, and Public seemed like the best deal at ~3x the cost for less.

Canadian phone plans really do suck.

Hopefully the speech recognition is better than whatever the fuck most online video platforms use for automatic subtitles at the moment.

Thanks to Concorde, Phil Collins was able to play at both the London and Philadelphia Live Aid concerts. He Played in London, got a helicopter to Heathrow, Concorde to NY and then another helicopter to Philadelphia.

I would like you to elaborate on these intriguing numbers

*edit, just saw your final line… how many eggs was it originally for?!

Entirely possible, but then we’re also talking in a thread about a subject that apparently 99% of humans don’t know about either.

Why be representative when you can be exceptional? :)

It’s easy on a Mac — option-shift-hyphen.

I use them all the time — unlike in the article I surround them with spaces though, so I guess at least that makes me human, even if wrong.

While normally I’d agree with you, this is custard we’re talking about here.

I’m willing to give it a go, myself.

When I was a lad (~30 years ago) hash was all we had. So much so that I don’t recall if I’ve ever actually smoked weed.

Bear in mind that these are British Conservatives, who are aligned more toward the US Democratic Party than what an American would consider “conservative”. They also have a black leader.

I love beaver!

You should be able to opt-out thought, right? Just deny it access at the OS level.

iOS doesn’t seem to be asking me for any permissions FWIW.

TBF you do have to be pretty fucking brave to live there.

Off the top of my head:

• Karate Champ II (arcade)
• Pac-Land (arcade)
• Gryzor aka Contra (Amstrad CPC)
• Sorcery (Amstrad CPC)
• Xenon (Atari ST)

Oh wait, Elite (BBC, Amstrad, and ST) — probably more so than Xenon.

Same. Walk the dogs, ride my bike, that sort of thing.

I have to move back to a big city in a couple of months, and I am not looking forward to it at all.
